DIED. ERMA BOMBECK, 69, humorist; following a kidney transplant; in San Francisco. The titles of her books spoke volumes about her view of motherhood, housewifery and life: I Lost Everything in the Post-Natal Depression; The Grass Is Always Greener over the Septic Tank.

Mandela may be planning something like a law-and-order crackdown: he was an advocate of the state of emergency that was imposed in Natal province last month, and he has been talking more and more about enacting strict gun- control regulations.
